Description

The Daughter", the first story was my favourite ( 5 stars), an interesting twist to how that photo was taken! Internationally admired and respected, Fali S. Nariman is a senior advocate of the Supreme Court of India. He began his career at the Bombay High Court in November 1950 and has since been active in the legal profession. Over the years, he has held several prestigious posts at both the national and international levels. He became a Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha) in November 1999. He is the recipient of the Padma Bhushan (1991) and the Padma Vibhushan (2007). Starting with his formative years, when he had the good fortune to interact with many eminent judges and advocates, Fali S. Nariman moves on to deal with a wide variety of important subjects, such as the sanctity of the Indian Constitution and attempts to tamper with it; crucial cases that have made a decisive impact on the nation, especially on the interpretation of the law; the relationship between the political class and the judiciary; and the cancer of corruption and how to combat this menace. The author outlines measures to restore the now-low credibility of the legal profession. He also delineates his role in several high-profile cases. I love the themes in these books. It shows value of family, friendship and life. And I find it beautiful to explore those themes. Most of the stories were quite heartwarming and touching.

These two quotes reaffirmed my thinking that our heart is the eyes of the soul, and if we truly want to know the person, we should never disregard this ability of another way to see. Meet more wonderful characters in the next captivating novel in the Before the Coffee Gets Cold series, Before We Say Goodbye, releasing November 14, 2023! The plot was fragmented into 4 episodic tales with each reflected the same slice-of-life theme like the previous instalments; an affecting journey on resentment, loneliness, loss love, grief and late confession. Bit glimpse at the beginning on Kei transporting to the future to meet Miki in Café Funiculi Funicula; a narrative that was brought forward from the last story in Book 1 before Kei passed away. All 4 stories appeared to share a very similar heartrending nuance to me yet I love how each was so pleasantly written. Perhaps because one of the regulars in this café was Saki the psychiatrist, the plot highlighted bits on psychological concerns as well; of depression and trauma, suicidal ideation, hallucinations, anxiety issues and mental breakdown.Loved the concept of those coffee cafés being like some kind of a portal between layers of time. I was surprised that Tokyo's cafe isn't the only one with a time travel possibility. Besides those ones existing in Japan, I thought at first that such a cafe is there somewhere in America as well... But it seems like nope. Such a thought had crossed my mind because of Yukari going to America in search of a young guy's missing father. The other thing I didn't see coming was a fact that Yukari Tokita is happened to be the author of a One Hundred Questions book. And maybe she is more than just a writer... There must be more to how this possibility for "us" to travel in time was being born. It felt good reading Kawaguchi’s tales and meeting the characters again. Yukari was a very intriguing character and I would love to know more about her. Same with the old gentleman ghost. I guess I have to wait for the next book. I also loved the characters’ discussions about a book called “What If the World Were Ending Tomorrow: One Hundred Questions.”. I enjoyed the lovely atmosphere in Café Donna Donna. It felt new but familiar at the same time. The writing is beautiful and straight-forward. But I could do without the rules being mentioned repeatedly. Themes such as death and grief play a huge part in the stories but also hope and love. Before Your Memory Fades is a heart-warming and poignant book. You can read this book as a stand-alone but I highly recommend reading the previous books first. From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold and Tales from the Cafe comes another story of four new customers, each of whom is hoping to take advantage of the cafe's time-travelling offer. Among some familiar faces from Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s previous novels, readers will also be introduced to: A special big thanks to Irina for recommending the first book in the Before the Coffee Gets Cold series, that has become a new favourite, extending the frontiers of time-travel and making us more human! Meet more wonderful characters in the next captivating novel in the Before the Coffee Gets Cold series, Before We Say Goodbye, releasing November 14, 2023!

I'm glad I met new people in here and hope to learn more about them in the next book, can't wait for yet another installment coming up! :) The wonderful experience of a heartwarming book, in my case it was one story at a time, I didn't want to mix them up.

Customer reviews

People’s true feelings are not in plain sight. The other person might not be thinking anything, but there is a tendency to just assume what the other is feeling without reaching out and asking.” Still in love with Kazu’s personality and what a twist to know that she has a daughter now who inherited her magical touch of serving the cup of coffee. I don’t fancy Reiji’s character that much but the last story of him and Nanako really gets my heart broken a bit. Light and delightful ways of writing despite how the author still having that same writing habit like before; to repetitively info dumping stuff he already mentioned in each story. Bit hopeful too for the old gentleman ghost as I thought one of the story would be about him but none yet; was wondering as well whether he was the same ghost from Café Funiculi Funicula or a different one(?) but I guess I need to wait the translated Book 4 to read his closure, maybe? From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold and Tales from the Cafe comes another story of four new customers, each of whom is hoping to take advantage of the cafe's time-travelling offer.
